This course gives you the opportunity to gain an understanding of concepts within the specialist field of music psychology whilst also developing your skills and knowledge in the practical and theoretical aspects of music.
You’ll be introduced to the concepts, key theories and principles of the psychology of music as well as their applications in a variety of contexts. You’ll also gain an insight into the historical and cultural influences and impacts of music. Our range of optional modules will give you the freedom to explore a broad range of other subject areas, from performance to composition, aesthetics to music technology.
Whether you’re interested in music education, performance, therapy, technology, or applied fields such as marketing, consumer behaviour and film music, you’ll gain an insight into the ways in which people hear, interpret and respond to music.
This is an integrated Masters course, meaning you’ll undertake three years of undergraduate study, with the fourth year taught at postgraduate level, converting your undergraduate degree to a postgraduate one.
